The wedding was beautiful. Our daughter was such a gorgeous bride (no bias here!) and my hubby looked so handsome in his tux! I haven't taken the cameras (disposables) to get the pictures made yet so I won't post them for a few days but I will... Read more

After being assured that it was in the 80's this week - great shorts weather I might add - we got to Texas and they are having a cold snap! Thank goodness I packed some jeans and one shirt with 3/4 length sleeves. Tomorrow I will buy a sweater... Read more

I don't know where the time has gone! It seems like it was only yesterday when our daughter's fiancée was asking my husband for his blessing on his marriage proposal to our daughter. Suddenly a year and a half is gone and the big day is this w... Read more

I have to share some good news with all of you. When hubby was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in June, his A1C was 12.7 and his sugar was 324. We have worked together as a team to cut out sugar and eat a healthy diet. He has done a great job ... Read more

Hubby and I had a really fun weekend.
On Friday night we went to the Tow Jam in Bartow. If you're not familiar with this; the third Friday night of every month the City of Bartow (Florida) closes down part of Main Street and has a live b... Read more

Are you ever sitting waiting for happiness to find you? WooHoo, happiness, I'm over here! Come and get me is what I think on occasion. Then I stop and think, this is totally absurd. Intellectually I know that in order to be happy, I have t... Read more

Yesterday, I was blessed with the opportunity to re-connect with a friend who I hadn't seen for about 16 years. She just moved to my state at the end of July and thought she would be located about 45minutes away but in reality it's closer to ab... Read more

I've started a new class called The Healthy Back. I've done three classes now and it's apparent to me that I have a lot of work to do on some of my core muscles (not all of them, just certain ones). The really great thing is that my back is st... Read more

I've decided that for the month of September that I'm going to do a refresher course on portion control. This means that I will try to measure things that are not pre measured and that I will log my food into the food tracker. Sometimes when y... Read more

I must admit that I've been looking around for quite some time for a dress for my step daughter's wedding. I wasn't even sure what it was supposed to look like or what the length was supposed to be but I was looking. Then, my hubby finally rem... Read more

Initially I was afraid that with the back to school shopping rush going on I would be the only one at the team walk yesterday. I was wrong. To my delight, AMANDAJC and OLDMOM3 and their children and grandchild came too. We had so much fun tha... Read more

We tried to squeeze in as much of our water aerobics class as possible this morning before the rain hit. We completed a solid 30 minute workout. Then, it started to sprinkle. One of the ladies said to me, "Just wait until you feel this. It's... Read more
